Q28 / 160 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Physics · Thermodynamics

A system undergoes a reversible adiabatic process. The entropy of the system

  • Correct answer
    A
    Remains constant
  • B
    May increase or may decrease
  • C
    Increases
  • D
    Decreases

Solution

In general, the temperature of the system may change during a process. If the process is reversible, the change in entropy is defined as

Sf-Si=∫if∆QT

In an adiabatic reversible process, no heat is given to the system. Therefore, entropy of the system remains constant. 

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
